Factfile: Nissen Huts

NISSEN huts have been described as “one of the great design classics of the twentieth century.”

They were created by engineer and inventor Major Peter Norman Nissen during the First World War to fulfil a need for cheap and easily constructible accommodation and were in extensively used during the Second World War.

The semi-cylindrical huts are made from a prefabricated frame covered in corrugated steel.

They could be packed in a standard Army wagon and erected by six men in four hours.

They were primarily used for accommodation but had a number of other functions including as churches and bomb stores and shelters.

Following the end of the Second World War many families whose homes had been destroyed lived in Nissen huts while reconstruction took place across the country.
